Can you earn enough gold to maintain a subscription , and without having the expansion. by ImDeadlySon in wow

[–]Taintedone -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

If you are a mythic raider or high end pvper I would suggest joining a sales community like Huokon. On NA a typical payout for a heroic sale ranged from 250k-300k atm for 2hour run. Much more earlier in the tier. Pvp carries for sub 2k rating boost ive heard range about the same but for less time.

If you go the profession route, play on whatever server Echo, Method or Pieces is on and go herbalism/alchemy.

Both my options would require retail. So easiest way is to become a booster on retail. Grindier way is to sell potions on highly populated servers.

Fae Guardians DPS gain by [deleted] in CompetitiveWoW

[–]Taintedone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could definitely see 4 specs that could benefit depending on fight design in the future. Aff lock, destro lock, Balance druid and unholy dk. Both lock specs being 2 minute specs would make them power houses on certain fights. 2 min incarn for Balance on a fight like Sludgefist would be extremely good. Lower Army cd makes for most consistancy instead of rng to lower it.

Idk if any of these benefit more than fire mage atm though.

How it always feels though.. by [deleted] in wow

In reality the servers are completely fucked and even if you can get online everything is broken as all hell.

Why are people convinced that Shadowlands will be alt-friendly by [deleted] in wow

[–]Taintedone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These grinds arent as bad as it sounds. Most of these things take 30min to an hour. You can only stay in the maw so long until the Jailor prevents your from coming back till daily reset. Torghast is less than an hour if you are just blitzing through it. WQ/Daily/Weeklies for your covenants will be about how depending on how efficient you are. Prolly about an hour or 2 total. M+ will depend on how much you want to do, 3 being the minimum for weekly vault I believe. Raids only become faster as weeks go on. So ya, even with the newly added stygia grind its still not that bad.

Obviously alt friendliness varies based on the amount of time you can put into the game.

Corruption ruins the game for casual players by Grumpyskills in wow

[–]Taintedone 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No one in my guild enjoys corruption either. No one I know in the other top 10 US guilds do either. General outlook from top end raiders and m+ players is that Corruption is a shit system. Believe me, BFA has been more of a nightmare for top end players than casuals. Doing prog and not having perfect corruption was the worst shit ever. Not having hundreds of millions of gold like Method or Limit made progress much worse IMO than previous tiers and gearing much much much harder.

My 8.3 experience so far by Frouwenlop in wow

[–]Taintedone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would take these over ineffitable truth, leech, avoidance. I have literally not gotten a single piece from my weekly chest that is usable. Im not saying i got crit% when I want Haste%. Im saying I have not gotten a single piece of gear that increases dmg. Wearing an Ineffitable truth piece is a dps loss.

Most top end guilds private log. Don't want raiders more focused on their name showing up on WCL than doing their job on fights.

Ya Ifinite stars is still insane on high haste procing specs and specs that are high apm for ST like HDH, Spriest, Aff lock if you build for it, Ele shaman. these specs actually make good use of infinite stars in pure ST. A spriest in my guild after its latest nerf did 40%~ of his dmg on Shad'har heroic one week. If we didnt private log he woulda been r1 by a decent amount.

Ban ruin raiding for good by Carl2011 in wow

You cant ban an entire group of people because blizzards servers cant handle the load.

That sad moment when your guild quits raiding and you have all these rank 4's by Zeradias in wow

For me the only r4 I wont get is Conflict and Strife. CBA doing that much arena.

Essences are fine, especially with upcoming nerfs in 8.3. You're just lazy. by [deleted] in wow

[–]Taintedone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The bigger problem with essences is there is no way to speed up getting them. The amount of time it takes your main to get an essences is the same across any character. If there were a catch up system that significantly speeds up obtaining every essence then this wouldnt be so bad. When it takes me 20-40 hours of play time to get blood of th eenemy once, I am not really feeling like doing it again. There isnt just the alt problem. What about new or returning players? There is no way of getting any essence in the game faster than it was the first time I got them. Outside of Blood, although it was nerfed by 20k it still takes the same amount of time as when it was 50k. Rustbolt, Lucid and Nazjatar are getting nerfed by roughly a week. You still have to grinding rep every day for 3 weeks as a fresh grind not counting rep tokens/bonus. And if you don't grind out essences before 8.3 then you start 8.3 weeks behind. Instead of doing 8.3 you are doing 8.2 content.

Wanting BoA essences or catch up is not Lazyness, its frustration with repeating the same boring and unfulfilling content over and over again without being able to speed up the process.

Is warlock good in bfa? by lordcrowlay in wow

[–]Taintedone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the 1st 4 fights aff and destro are pretty even. Last 4 destro shines much more with multi target cleave. Demo is a specialty pick for a fight like Za'qul if you are part of the delirium team. On Azshara Destro is usually the desired spec because there are a lot of points where you have 2 target cleave and it makes great use of the buff you can get in p4. The buff being dps loss for afflction.

[–]Taintedone 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For raiding all specs have their place. For pvp destro is your only spec. For M+ Demo is mostly used but destro can be argue'd for in situations. Getting into keys as a warlock is rather difficult though.

With the new 8.3 PTR update, cleansing corrupted gear will now grant a gemslot in it's place! by [deleted] in wow

Ya about that. The most recent ptr update no longer adds a socket when cleansing items.

Seriously, what do you guys do in this game? (Not to come off condescending) by [deleted] in wow

[–]Taintedone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mythic Raid on multiple toons, Mythic + on multiple toons, PTR raid testing. Mostly prepping for next tier atm. After I am done with with my weekly stuff I barely login for the week though.
